Alpha Holdings Renews Superior, $39.3 Million Offer to OncoSec

 Provides $9.3 Million in Additional Value Compared with China Grand Takeover and Gives Stockholders the Opportunity to Receive a Cash Premium

Binding Term Sheet Expires on February 1

Stockholders who Oppose China Grand Takeover Must Vote on BLUE Card Only

SEONGNAM, South Korea–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Alpha Holdings, Inc. (KOSDAQ: 117670) (“Alpha”), the largest stockholder of OncoSec Medical Incorporated (NASDAQ: ONCS) (“OncoSec”), with an approximate 15.1% ownership stake, today announced that it has renewed its alternative financing proposal and provided a revised binding term sheet to OncoSec. Alpha continues to believe its proposed financing is significantly more favorable to OncoSec and its stockholders than the $30 million takeover offer from China Grand.¹

As previously announced, the proposal represents:

• $9.3 million in additional value compared with the China Grand Takeover;
• The opportunity for stockholders to receive a cash premium for 35% of OncoSec shares through a tender offer of $2.50 per share; and
• $30 million in financing for OncoSec at a premium valuation.

Under the terms of its proposal, Alpha would purchase two tranches of newly issued OncoSec common stock: the first tranche of $10 million would be at a purchase price of $2.50 per share and the second tranche of $20 million would be at a 25% premium of the volume weighted average price of OncoSec common stock for the 30 days prior to the date of Alpha exercising the second tranche. The first tranche would be completed within six months of and the second tranche would be completed no later than one year after a definitive agreement. Alpha’s binding offer does not include a financing contingency.

The offer remains open through February 1, 2020. All other terms of Alpha’s binding alternate financing proposal, including the resignations of Dan O’Connor, Avtar Dhillon and Punit Dhillon, have not changed.

VOTE THE BLUE CARD ONLY: ANY VOTE ON THE WHITE CARD MAY HELP THE CHINA GRAND DEAL

Any vote on the WHITE card – even one AGAINST the China Grand Takeover – helps OncoSec achieve a quorum, which is the minimum number of votes necessary to validate the vote on the transaction. Therefore, an AGAINST vote on the WHITE card may actually help OncoSec complete the China Grand Takeover.

OncoSec stockholders who wish to oppose the China Grand Takeover must vote AGAINST on Alpha’s BLUE proxy card ONLY. If you have already voted on the WHITE card or on both cards, stockholders should contact Alpha’s proxy solicitors, Okapi Partners, at (212) 297-0720, or your broker to make sure your vote AGAINST the transaction on the BLUE card has been recorded.

Please discard any WHITE card you receive from OncoSec and do not agree to vote on the WHITE card if contacted by OncoSec and its representatives as doing so will cancel any vote you have made on the BLUE card.
